What Is GB Standard Testing?

GB standard testing (Guobiao testing, 国标检测) refers to the compulsory evaluation of products against China's national standards. Whether your product is a household appliance, a children's toy, or a piece of industrial machinery, you must demonstrate GB compliance through an accredited laboratory test. A valid GB test report is often a prerequisite for CCC certification, market entry, or customs clearance in China. The testing covers safety, EMC, chemical composition, and physical performance, depending on the product category and applicable GB standard.

Our GB standard testing service guides foreign manufacturers through the entire Chinese national standard testing journey. We coordinate testing with CNAS-accredited labs, prepare all technical documentation, and interpret the results for you. With our support, you can navigate the China GB testing process without setting up a local office.

Our GB Standard Testing Process

1. Standard Identification & Gap Analysis

We identify the applicable GB standards for your product and perform a gap analysis against your existing international test reports to define the testing scope.

2. Laboratory Testing

Your samples are tested at a CNAS-accredited GB testing lab. We track progress for safety, EMC, performance, and chemical parameters, resolving any non-conformities.

3. Report Preparation & Review

We compile the required documents and test data to generate the official GB test report. We review the report with you before delivery.

4. Report Issuance & Ongoing Support

Once approved, you receive your GB compliance test report. We assist with periodic retesting and updates to keep your products aligned with evolving standards.
